Many international students find peer- support programs are one of the best ways to overcome issues relating to culture shock, homesickness and adjusting to a new life. The Student Information Guidance Network (SIGN) Mentor program sets up small groups of new students with later year students (mentors) who help new students settle in.

Volunteering at ANU is a rewarding activity. Get to know your campus, your peers, the student services staff and most of all your university. Be a part of many social events that we run on campus throughout the year.
